I am currently a postdoctoral associate at the Yale Center for Astronomy and Astrophysics at Yale University. My research is principally in the fields of observational and computational cosmology. A more detailed description of my research interests can be found here. A list of my publications can be found here.

I obtained my PhD from the University of Cambridge in 2006, working with my advisor Jerry Ostriker (now back at Princeton). My thesis focussed on studying the structure and evolution of dark matter halos in N-body simulations, as well as their sub-halo populations.

From 2006 to 2009 I was a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Physics at McGill University, in the wonderful city of Montreal, Quebec. There I worked with Gil Holder on topics related to galaxy clusters, cosmology and the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect . I also became involved in the South Pole Telescope, a high-resolution, mm-wave survey experiment in (surprise, surprise) Antarctica, designed to detect galaxy clusters via their SZ signature and study the CMB power spectrum at small angular scales.
